Further North. Para-boarding on the Gold Coast, Queensland.

And back to Sydney.  After a bushfire in Karingai National Park. (It was still smouldering).

Kerry:

Wow, fabulous pics, Rob. Wish I could pick out one as a favourite but I can't. They're all excellent.

One of the primary reasons I bought a digital camera was to catalogue and archive my paintings. And my little Olympus performs this function brilliantly IMHO. I was delighted with the close-up clarity it delivers. In zoom, one can even see the brush strokes. I couldn't be more delighted with my camera.

OOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Oh I especially love the reds of the shirt...so rich and textured!!

thank you Kerry!

[joke!]). I took a couple of pics here at work yesterday. We have quite a nice view of the city and Harbour Bridge, as seen through the trees of the leafy North Shore. I'll post a couple of the pics when I get home tonight. I am very pleased with one in particular.

Oops, I almost forgot that I promised I would post one of the pics I took at work yesterday. Here's my favourite!  :D

Just joking!  ;)   :laugh:

Here's the real pic taken from my office. I took lots of pics of the city skyline but none of them grabbed me. That was until I went to another window further to the right, where a corner of the building could be seen. This addition tilted the composition off centre and gave it real clout IMHO (David, you can glimpse the Harbour Bridge through the trees to the left). May be necessary to scroll over --->


I couldn't resist taking a couple of zoom pics. This is my favourite. It reminds me of the first glimpse Dorothy and her companions get of the Emerald City in the Wizard of Oz (Sydney's nickname is the Emerald City).
